THEORY OF OPERATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The Phantom Edge is a self monitoring wireless (RF) sensing edge system. A special
communication protocol between the transmitter and receiver allow for additional signals
3
(other than edge activation) to be sent, such as battery condition and periodic communication
checks. If the unit detects a fault it will convert the operator to supervised mode
(i.e. constant pressure contact on operator close control) indicating that maintenance
is required.
WIRING COULD CAUSE ELECTROCUTION OR DAMAGE TO CIRCUITRY
FOLLOW ALL LOCAL BUILDING CODES AND NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODES. IMPROPER

3) Remove the protective film from the adhesive backed foam tape and attach it to the back of the
Transmitter box. Attach the Transmitter box to Bottom Bar vertical surface with the label facing

When the Bottom Bar encounters an obstruction, the Transmitter sends reversing signal to
OPERATION:
The unit periodically tests communication by sending a signal at regular intervals.
If any of the above occur (not occur) the unit will enter into Supervised Mode:

1) Locate position on Bottom Bar near Sensing Edge pigtail. (Approx. 18" from end of Bottom Bar)
Constant pressure will be required on close door operation until fault is corrected.
4) Connect the sensing edge pigtail to the transmitter per the detail shown on the next page.
